On March 8, 2016, Trooper Sean E. Cullen died in the line of duty. He was a resident of Cinnaminson, NJ for the last 23 years. Sean was a 2003 graduate of Cinnaminson High School, where he set the bar for his successors with over 100 wrestling wins. Sean was an All-American wrestler at Lycoming College, graduating in 2007, and he was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2012. In addition to protecting his community through the Bellmawr Barracks of the NJ State Police, Sean also gave back to his high school as a volunteer wrestling coach.

Sean was a captivating and memorable man. He believed that life was to be filled with laughter, and he strove to make others smile and laugh with his strong wit and hilarious antics.

It would be a honor to the Cinnaminson community to have the high school’s new gymnasium named after Sean. Please sign if you believe the new gymnasium should be named the Sean E. Cullen Memorial Gymnasium.

Sean graduated with my daughter from Cinnaminson HS. He had great school spirit and was a fine athlete. He chose a career that serves society and deserves to be honored in this way.

I knew Sean since he was a little boy. He play with my children. He wrestled with my son. He always had a big hug and a million dollar smile every time you saw him. He had the heart of a hero. His name should surely be memorialized.

A wonderful tribute to our very own hometown hero. Sean is an excellent role model for Cinnaminson's future generations to follow. RIP Trooper Sean Cullen!! Thank you for giving back to our Cinnaminson community and protecting the state of New Jersey! -Michelle (CHS Class of 2006)

It was an honor to have had the opportunity to call Sean a teammate and friend. This is no better way to intimidate those Bears than to have them walk into the Sean E. Cullen Memorial Gymnasium!

I am a Cinnaminson High School graduate and I am raising my children here so that they will be one day too. It warms my heart to think of the day they step into the gym and understand why on that week in March of 2016 they wore blue, hung ribbons and saw hundreds of amazing officers/heros gather in our wonderful little town.

As a graduate of CHS , I think it would be great to name it after him. Someone who put his life on the line for others and have back to the school that was so good to him and helped mold him into the person he became.

A fitting honor for a fellow law enforcement officer. I am a 1976 graduate of CHS and a long time police officer. Pray for his memory and his family. Honor his service to the school, community, state and country. Do the right thing guys.

I graduated from CHS in 02'. I had the honor of knowing the Cullen family since high school. This bothers me that we even have to sign a petition. All of the usual "politics" should be set aside given the circumstances. All of those involved in this decision should think long and hard about the long term effects of making the wrong decision. Thank you!
